The purpose of the Academy of Magical Arts is to encourage and promote public interest in the art of magic with particular emphasis on preserving its history as an art form, entertainment medium, and hobby. Magicians and magic enthusiasts around the world have come to know the Castle as the ultimate magic clubhouse and home of the Academy of Magical Arts, Inc.
When you become a member, the Magic Castle becomes your Magic Castle. You and your guests can enjoy the unique talents of the Magic Castle’s world-class performers and dine in Victorian Splendor. Members also enjoy a special Friday lunch, as well as Saturday and Sunday brunches which are a treat for the whole family. Membership also brings admission to a wide variety of members-only events.
As a member, you also have the privilege of issuing guest passes to your friends and business associates so they too can visit the Castle. Magician members can also take advantage of the Magic Castle’s extensive library of books, videos, DVDs, and periodicals exploring the world of the magical arts, and can attend lectures presented by some of the world’s foremost experts in the world of magic.
The Academy of Magical Arts, Inc. has been and will continue to be the premier organization in the world dedicated to the art of magic. We are an organization that encourages fellowship, promotes the art, and maintains the highest ethical standards in our actions. We will provide a friendly environment where members and their guests can enjoy the art and each other’s company. Our objective is to advance the art and provide a positive image of magic and magicians worldwide.
* Magician Members Only
As a yearly member (Associate and Magician only), you will have the opportunity to see magic shows seven nights a week, enjoy a special Friday lunch, Saturday and Sunday Brunches (a treat for the whole family), and a wide variety of members-only events. Special in-house discounts on dining, beverage, merchandise, and events will also be available to you.
Additionally, you will have the privilege of issuing guest cards to your friends and business associates so they can visit the Castle when you are not able to attend with them. We have reciprocity with many other private clubs as well, which will allow you to enjoy your membership worldwide. Please note that all Members and Guests of the Academy of Magical Arts must follow all rules and regulations of the Academy and the Magic Castle, including the strict dress code and no photography rule. All memberships are non-refundable.
The Academy offers Non-Resident Membership rates for yearly members, both Associate and Magician. To qualify as a Non-Resident Member you must reside outside of a 60 mile radius of our clubhouse.
An Associate member is anyone over the age of 21 years of age who loves the art of magic and wants to enjoy the amazing benefits of having The Magic Castle as their Clubhouse. Many of our Associate Members are professionals in the entertainment industry, but many are simply those who wish to enjoy our unique club. You do not need to be a magician to join as an Associate. However, the Academy of Magical Arts does provide Magic Classes for adults wishing to learn the art of magic.
